Hit twistys in M5 today!!!

It was amazing!!!

Then, I up shifted twice, and suddenly I was stealthily cruising in M3.

Oh well, for those two brief moments I was in both in M5 and M3! My F02 can do some amazing things! Tranformers---more than meets the eye!

Lol, weird right. I'm still trying to understand the whole transmission M3 and M5 scenario.

I guess he retrofitted M-DCT into his F02? It's the only explanation.

No, my display shows M1...M8 when in manual mode on my stock f02 tranny.

I was trying to be funny in that my car was briefly an M5 and an M3 as I shifted through the gears.

If you read my post carefully, I said I was in M5, and not in an M5.

But, my 2013 x, non sport, but ARS, f02 rides do much better than my 2011 non-ARS f02.

This goes to show that a 2013 550 (and now 2014) must be incredible.

You meant down shifted to M3? But that wouldn't make sense either. You would play in M3 and cruise in M5, not the other way around.
I wish my 2012 F02 has the new N63tu and 8 gears.
